I coded this blog using HTML, CSS, PHP . I am using MySQL to store the data for each blog post. I created a Filemaker solution to store the data and to interact with MySQL The Filemaker script Execute SQL came in very useful for adding and editing blog posts.

I did not code this using the responsive first web design approach. Maybe in the future I will make this site more mobile friendly. My main purpose was to create a site that can gather data from a different MySQL database simply be changing a few lines of PHP code.

Not my Domain Name Pointing to my Website

I have an interesting scenario.

I have an interesting scenario. A domain name which I do not own is pointing to my website. The owner of the domain will not take down the domain forwarding. The main reason this is a bad deal is search engines. When search results include my website, the other domain shows up in the results. This implies that my website is associated with their website.
Not so as their is no association.

So I believe I found a solution. .htaccess which is used for site-access issues. I create an .htaccess rule to redirect the unwanted url to an error page on my website. I hope that the search engines will crawl my pages -soon- and push the unwanted search results so far down that the search results will appear irrelevant.

Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.
